Angulo’s stoppage time winner helps Goa beat Jamshedpur 2-1

Vasco (Goa), Dec 23 : Igor Angulo scored a stoppage-time winner to help FC Goa script a thrilling 2-1 victory over Jamshedpur FC in the Indian Super League (ISL) at the Tilak Maidan on Wednesday.
Stephen Eze had put Jamshedpur ahead in the first half but Angulo’s brace helped Goa claim all three points and end Jamshedpur’s six-match unbeaten run.
Both sides showed attacking intent from the beginning but had only one shot on target in the first half as they failed to create clear-cut opportunities.
Brandon Fernandes had a chance to put his side ahead early on when he was set up by Jorge Ortiz on the left. The midfielder got the ball at the edge of the box and curled a shot at the far post, only to see his attempt miss the top corner.
Jamshedpur broke the deadlock at the half-hour mark and the goal came from a set-piece. Aitor Monroy put in a long ball at the far post and Eze managed to beat Mohammad Nawaz with an outstretched right foot. The Goa custodian should have done better though.
Jamshedpur’s defence frustrated Goa’s attack in the first half, with Eze standing tall at the back. The defender was there to thwart every danger posed by the Gaurs. Though Goa dominated in terms of possession and passes, they hardly tested Jamshedpur keeper T.P. Rehenesh in the first 45 minutes.
